Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Courtesy Michael Davis, Dallas Progress-ive and Dallas City Plan Commissioner, comes word that the former Hard Rock Cafe's now for lease -- since that sale never went through. Earlier this year, the former McKinney Avenue Baptist Church, built in 1910, was the subject of a vicious fight over historic designation.
According to United Commercial Realty, the property ain't cheap: Rent'll run you $450,000 for the year, and you must take it for no fewer than 10 years. --Robert Wilonsky
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
